Adam Carolla Sued by Friend Donny Misraje Over Memoir Photos

Adam Carolla, the comedian-actor formerly of "The Man Show," is being sued for the second time this year by "a very close friend of . . . over 30 years," according to a lawsuit filed May 30 in U.S. District Court in Central California.

The most recent case involves the use of several photographs in Carolla's 2012 memoir "Not Taco Bell Material."

In the suit, Carolla's friend Donny Misraje – a Hollywood producer and editor – alleged the images belonged to him and that the comedian as well as his publisher, Crown Publishing, and Carolla did not have "permission, consent or license to [use them]."

"Plaintiff believes that he has suffered or is likely to suffer damages and will continue to suffer serious and substantial damages resulting from Defendants' copyright infringement, including irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law," the lawsuit states.
